Everyone loves Mi Band 2. But you can't sell the same thing forever. In addition, a single-color OLED display is not suitable for all use cases.
For example, during training it is much more convenient to use a full-fledged smartwatch that does not require connection to a smartphone. Such as Garmin or the like. There's no escape without GPS either. So Xiaomi Mi Band 2 is a very budget-friendly, simple solution.
For those who want more, Xiaomi and its partners have released real smartwatches on their own platform Huami Amazfit Pace — stylish, metal, with a replaceable strap of a standard size and protection according to the IP67 standard.
Xiaomi Amazfit Pace, unlike its progenitor, is equipped with a normal screen - however, it is not a TFT or IPS panel. This is a unique transfocal display (300x300 with a diagonal of 1.34 inches), providing maximum energy efficiency and image clarity with minimal brightness. Even without backlighting, you can read from this under the bright sun - something every athlete needs.
As a processor, the new product uses its own configuration with two ARM cores with a clock frequency of 1.2 GHz. Like analogues on AdroidWatch, Amazfit Pace boasts a high amount of memory - 512 MB. The storage is also quite large, since the watch is equipped with a built-in player function (when wireless headphones are connected to it).
The autonomy of Xiaomi (Huami) Amazfit Pace is ensured by a built-in non-removable battery with a capacity of 200 mAh, sufficient to work for up to 1.5 days in training mode or up to 5 days as a clock and display for reminders.
Additional functions Xiaomi Amazfit Pace include a pedometer, advanced heart rate monitor and built-in AliPay module - only available within China.
As a companion app Amazfit Pace can use the Amazfit application of the same name, the traditional Mi Fit and even Strava.
